YSRCP Leader Alleges Vindictive Politics and Targeting of BCs by Andhra Pradesh Government
YSRCP president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy accused the TDP-led coalition government in Andhra Pradesh of deteriorating law and order and targeting Backward Classes (BCs) through vindictive politics. He alleged false cases were filed against YSRCP leaders, including MLA B. Virupakshi, whose home was raided and CCTV cameras damaged. Jagan claimed police failed to act against attacks by TDP workers and cited other BC leaders facing serious charges. The TDP government has not responded to these allegations.
